Are there any Lithographs in the Disney Fine Art collection?
Yes…and no. Offset lithography is the most common form of commercial printing. Every magazine or catalog you read is technically an offset lithograph. Because we prefer to make each edition of Disney Fine Art a little more unique, anytime we reproduce an image using lithography, we will frequently combine it with other hand techniques, such as a few passes of serigraphy to add more dimension and depth to the work. By combining two print techniques in this way, the work then becomes a “Mixed Media” print, which is the case with a number of works in the Manuel Hernandez portfolio. In the case of Manuel Hernandez’s mixed media work, Manny personally creates the screens for the serigraphy pass, which add a layer of clear gloss highlights onto select areas in the painting which he feels should be brought out to create more dimension and texture. Additionally, all our Mixed Media editions are reproduced using very high quality, acid free archival paper.
